R.M.S. “AQUITANIA” - “THE SHIP BEAUTIFUL”
PALLADIAN LOUNGE, “A” DECK. - Much artistic antiquarian and historical interest is concentrated in this magnificently appointed apartment. It is almost impossible to realize that such a handsome room is existent on board an ocean-going liner.

CAROLEAN SMOKING ROOM, “A” DECK, where the votaries of the Goddess Nicotine will find all the comfort of the most popular London or New York Club.
DRAWING ROOM, “A” DECK.-The Drawing Room and Library in its exquisite beauty is worthy of the grace, lightness and delicacy which characterized the finest work of the Adam Brothers.
ARTISTS’ SUITES AND EN-SUITE ROOMS. These rooms are situated on both “A” and “B" Decks. The art of three centuries is depicted in the former, named after Holbein, Velasquez, Van Dyck, Rembrandt, Reynolds, Gainsborough, Romney and Raeburn.
SALONS, “A” DECK.—These are situated on “A" Deck, between the Main Staircase and the Lounge. They are treated in the Louis XVI. style, with large windows and graceful ornamentation. They contain pictures which are excellent reproductions of Hubert Robert.
GARDEN LOUNGES, “A” DECK. - These command delightful views of the sea, and with their trellis work, evergreens, climbing ivy, and reed and willow furniture afford ideal spots for talk and tea.
LOUIS XVI RESTAURANT, “D” DECK.—The artistic features of this handsome and stately dining saloon rival those of the most famous restaurants of New York, London and Paris. The ensemble impressively demonstrates the success of the efforts made to give the ocean traveler dining facilities second to none on land or sea.
